SHERIDAN, WYOMING – December 19, 2025 – If you’ve been following Toyota’s “developing ever-better cars” era and waiting to see its newest flagships up close, January is about to get very tempting. TOYOTA GAZOO Racing (TGR) says it will exhibit at Tokyo Auto Salon 2026 at Makuhari Messe in Chiba City, Japan, from January 9 to 11, bringing the GR GT and GR GT3 for their first general-public reveal after their December 5 world premiere.

A Public Debut for Two New Flagships

Toyota is positioning the GR GT and GR GT3 as the stars of its booth, and the timing is part of the excitement: these models are moving from “world premiere” energy to real-life, in-person viewing. For anyone who likes to judge a car by stance, proportions, and details you simply can’t feel through a screen, a show like Tokyo Auto Salon is where the obsession usually begins.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – December 19, 2025 – Toyota didn’t present its new sports models like a typical “bigger, faster, louder” launch. Instead, the world premiere on December 5 at the Woven City Inventor Garage in Susono, Shizuoka, leaned into something more human: the craft of making cars, the pressure of being judged, and the stubborn decision to keep improving even when it would be easier to play it safe.

A Japanese Ritual That Explains the Mindset

The story begins with Shikinen Sengu at Ise Jingu in Mie Prefecture, where a shrine is rebuilt every 20 years and sacred objects are moved from old to new. The shrine’s own explanation reads like a mission statement for any craft worth protecting: “The history of Japan and the spirit of our ancestors must never be cast aside. We must continue to safeguard those things that need to be preserved for the future. Doing so is more difficult than embracing change, and more important.”
